Good point. That is an issue too. California is the worst for it. People's children are being taken away if the parents don't "Affirm" their desire to transition. Counselors are not allowed to suggest other options before getting on the path to surgery, which California pays for if it happens before age 18. Scary. I hope it is better for you in Kentucky. From what I see in Ohio and Tennessee, where most of my family is, schools are okay. My daughter put her children in a private school for a few years. The public school turned out to be better so she moved them back. You never know but, I'd take my chances with a red state. All the school system needs to do is educate children, feed them and stay out of politics with the kids. When the parents are involved in the children's lives, they do not need to be nosing in. I applaud your courage to take the leap from big blue city to country rural in the south.
